Lotus Seed Coral and TurquoiseLightweight and natural, this mala contains lotus seeds with 3 turquoise nuggets and 6 coral beads. The lotus flower, from whence Padmasambhava was born, is prized and honored among Buddhists. The pure, delicate flower arises from bogs and slowly develops a beautiful seed head from which these seeds are extracted. The dried seeds are then smoothed and sealed to make great, long lasting beads. Their texture, weight and size are ideal for daily mantras
